Looking in the /var/log/mce_installed_*.log files, it looks like it cannot download mythtv
heres the end of a log file...
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
pluto-dcerouter: PreDepends: mythtv-backend but it is not installable
PreDepends: mythtv-database but it is not installable
PreDepends: mythtv-backend but it is not installable
PreDepends: mythtv-database but it is not installable
E: Broken packages
ERROR : Failed to install and configure the base software
